I desperately wanted Sparkling Bronze but with the Tobacco leather. It's near to the Truffle brown I had in my 2004 and it still looked so great after 7 years when I finally sold it.

I ended up with Space Grey and black interior, was forced to buy off the lot - it's OK...and had choice between black and Oyster (and Oyster does have the black carpets, etc). I flew to get my car in Colorado Springs and was picked up in the airport in a dealer loaner with Oyster and only 3,000 miles on it and it looked pretty but was soiled. I'm wondering (out loud) how much work it'd be to keep Oyster clean. Because of my outdoor activities (snow skiing, boating/water skiing) I was too leery of going with anything light on the interior. But sure does look impressive in person.

Make sure you check out BMW Apps and any phone integration options before hand. I didn't do my homework and paid for it. Also the spare tire if you have intentions of removing the run flats.

Congrats, the x35d is a great car!
